SUNKEN RAFT WORTH A MILLION
By Associated Press.
Ballston, N. Y., Oct. 16.—Dr. James
Winthrope Hegeman, rector of Christ
Episcopal church here and the founder
of church federation, in his sermon yes-
terday referred ’ to the exclusion of th&
Unitarians from the interchurch confer-
ence. He deplored the raising of the
“ghost of doctrinal debate” and asserted
that the word “evangelical” was a fetich
with many and worked out against the
unity of the variety of citizens of the
kingdom. The use of this word made the
Evangelical alliance unable to realize its
full mission. The Y. M. C. A., he said,
did not succeed to any extent until it re-
moved the conditions created by this
word. An atempt was made at the or-
ganization of the New York state federa-
tion to put in the constitution, but was
defeated because it restricted the inclu-
siveness desired to secure the benefits of
co-operation and because it would reject
Roman Catholics, Jews, Unitarians,
Lutherans and Episcopalians, which, his-
torically, are not evangelical, he con-
tinued. The assumptions in the rejection
of any church on the ground of religion
are themselves unchristian. The general-
ization based on the procession of the
spirits of Christ as a criterion of citizen-
ship has been shifted to the region of
dogmatic tenets, he said, and the motto
of some that Christianity is a creed, not
a life, has seemed to out the teaching that
“with the heart man believeth unto life.”
Dr. Hegeman believed the real reason
of the discrimination against Unitarians
must have been the desire to keep out an
element which would “disturb tnousands
of the weak brethren and prevent their
joining the federation. Such action would
be wise were church unity in view in
federation. However, it is unjustifiable.”
Viewing the aim and scope of the federa-
tion, the action was that of ecclesiastical
policies when the opportunity was at hand
for statesmanlike measures, he said.
DECLNED TO BE DELEGATE.
By Associated Press.
New Haven, Conn., Oct. 16.—Rev. Geo.
Ferris, pastor of Calvary Baptist church,
prefaced his sermon yesterday with the
statement that he felt it his duty to de-
cline to be a delegate of the Baptist
church to the coming meeting of the
federation of churches in Philadelphia be-
cause of the refusal to admit members of
the Unitarian church.
Mr. Ferris declared this action unchari-
table and unchristian.

In summarizing the series of “Plain Talks on Profitable Advertising,’ of which
this is the last, keep these facts in mind when investing in newspaper advertising
space:
The afternoon newspaper is, on an average, six hours before the reading
eyes of the public, while the morning paper is on an average but three hours.
THE AFTERNOON NEWSPAPER IS ALWAYS MORE THOROUGHLY
READ THAN THE MORNING PAPER.
, The small advertiser gets very little value for his announcement in
paper because it is read hastily.
More persons read an afternoon newspaper than a morning paper.
Newspaper advertising is an investment, not an expense.
Advertise in the most popular newpaper, because the people will then feel
that you are on their side.
DO NOT MISREPRESENT YOUR GOODS IN YOUR ADVERTISEMENTS
FOR THE SAKE OF DRAWING A CROWD, THEY WON’T COME THE SEC-

Tokio, Oct. 16.—M. Tereaulchi, minister

war was entirely the outcome of sovereign
power.
His order forbids criticism of either sub-

utilize the opportunities of peace after
disbandment of their regiments by engag-
ing in their respective occupations, al-,

New Orleans, La., Oct. 16.—Unless the
federal authorities arc to be greatly dis-
appointed, the week beginning today will
mark practically the end of the yellow
fever visitation.
The remarkable showing of only eight
new cases in the past 24 hours is regarded
as confirming Dr. White’s prediction that
the fever will ultimately die out with
considerable suddenness.
Last there Wfts a total of only 129
cases agaipjst 176 the week before and IS
deaths against 22 in the preceding week.
Fropa Aug. 12 each week shows a decline.
fuf_____. ....
3 cases under treat-
ment and this number will soon fall within
100. In the emergency hospital there are
now oply 22 cases. The third ward, the
largest in the city, has now not a single
case of fever.
Wholesale reductions of working forces
continue. Inspectors to the number of 115
were dropped from the rolls yesterday at
the end of their working day and more
will be let go today. There will then be 400
men at work against 1276 a short time ago.
Dr. Rosenay, the. bacteriologist of the
marine hospital service, who was sent
here by Surgeon General Wyman to make
investigations at the emergency hospital,
has returned to Washington. In the work
here he co-operated with Dr. Goldberger
also. Dr. Rosenau took with him numer-
ous plates containing photographs of blood,
etc., but before he left would not be quot-
ed as to any of his discoveries.
General improvement in state conditions
continue. Only qpe death occurred in the
state outside of New Orleans in the pre-
ceding 24 hours. The lifting of some quar-
antines is already bringing country people
into New Orleans and enabling other
country people who have been refugeeing
here and elsewhere to return to their
homes.
No deaths from yellow fever occurred
during the night and with the small num-
ber of cases reported at the marine hos-
pital headquarters in the forenoon the
outlook was very favorable.
Dr. White believes that both Alabama
and Mississippi will raise quarantine at
the first moment.
The weather is threatening and there is
a slight chill in the air, promising a furth-
er fall in temperature.

New Orleans Institution on Which There
Was a Run Is Sound and Solvent.
By Associated Press.
New Orleans, La,, Oct. 16.—The run on
the Germania Savings bank has entirely
ceased and the excitement of Friday and
Saturday entirely passed. .
When the bank opened today there was
nobody waiting to withdraw money and
as the hours passed it became evident
that confidence in the institution had been
fully restored. Before 11 o’clock deposi-
tors^—20 of those who had taken money
out last week—presented their accounts
for redeposit.
Officials of the bank said they expected
that practically all the money that had
been withdrawn would be returned.
The clearing house made the statement
today that it considered the Germania
incident entirely closed and the credit of
the bank unimpaired.
The state bank examiner has made a
public statement of his belief that the
Germania is one of the most solvent
banking institutions in the state and is
amply able to pay its depositors in full.

White Oak Timber Had Been Lost
Canadian Lake.
Detroit, Mich., Oct. 16.—A million dollars
under thirty feet of water is the find that
N. W. Trimble claims to have made about
fifty miles north of Toronto. The fortune
is in the form of an old raft of white oak
beams deep under the surface of Lake
Scugog, and have been Imbedded in the
mud on the bottom for over sixty years.
Joseph Dimister, Mr. Trimble’s grand-
father, was one of the big lumber ship-
pers of Ontario years ago. Every spring
an immense raft was floated down the
Linsey river, through Lake Scugog, and
on down the various waterways to Mon-
treal. It was on one of these spring trips
that the raft of white oak was lost. The
start was long delayed, and the raft,
which was not properly floated with pine
and lighter wood, became lodged in the
ice before the journey was completed.
When the men returned the following

spring the oak logs had become water-
,soaked and had sunk.
For some reason the raft was never
raised, although Mr. Trimble’s father
knew of it and located the place where
it was supposed to have gone down. Grad-
ually all the old settlers in that part of
the country died, and the story of the big
raft was handed down as a fable among
the younger generation. Many people
claimed to have seen it, but nobody knew
just where it sank, and there was no cap-
ital to push exploring expeditions. Hun-
dreds of people nosed about the river for
years, but the spot was never discovered.
Mr. Trimble read the story of the val-
uable raft in some of the Canadian papers
and at once set out to locate it, He ques-
tioned all the old inhabitants in the neigh-
borhood and spent all the past year in
following up various clews. About a
month ago he located the raft in Scugog
lake, where no one had ever thought of
looking for it. Operations were carried on
with the utmost secrecy, and the title is
now clear, giving Mr. Trimble full posses-
sion of all the timber.

Washington, D. C., Oct. 16.—In the case
of.E. L. Wimish vs. Henry Jamison, the
supreme court of the United States today
reversed the decision of the district court
for the southern district of Georgia. This
is the case in which United States Judge
Spear interfered with the' sentence of a
prisoner, Jamison, by the recorder’s court
of Macon, to work on the streets. The
reversal of the case has the effect of sus-
tainging the local court.
that the company had violated the state
banking laws.
H. R. Sanborn, who is named
signee, is president of the company. Of-
ficers of the institution declare that it is
absolutely solvent and that depositors
can readily be paid in full.
The bank had, when the last statement
was issued in June this year, assets and
liabilities amounting to $1,392,681. The de-
posits then were $368,661.
The bank wilj resist any attempt to take
away its charter and today filed a motion
in the circuit court to quash the summons
of Attorney General Ellis.

Open Session to Last the

Her first venture at cooking dinner in
her own home had passed successfully,
and they sat in silence at the opposite
ends of the table, wondering at the
novelty of it all, and gazing_at each other.
“Honestly—on your word of honor—did
you like it, Fred?” she asked, finally.
“Never enjoyed anything so much in my
life,” he said, and swallowed a lump.
“Everything—from soup to pudding?”
“Every mouthful, from soup to pud-
ding,” he said, bravely. “There is only
one thing lacking to make it a grand suc-
cess, and that is my favorite ‘High
Grade.’ That puts the finishing touches
on any dinner.”
Tomorrow afternoon the district confer-
ence of the German Evangelical church
meets'in the church of th^ (J^iiqmination
on the northeast corner of 19th and H at
3 o’clock. Tomorrow and Wednesday the
meetings will be In charge of Presiding
Eifler C. Bunse of this district, while the
annual conference proper, which begins
Thursday morning, will be in charge of
Bishop Horn.
Bishop Horn and Presiding Elder Bunse
are the only high dignitaries that will be
In attendance, although there will be four-
teen or fifteen ministers from Texas, and
other states. The entire list of those who
will be present is not yet ready, but so far
as known the following will be here: Rev.
E. Schumm, formerly of the German
Evangelical church here, but now of
Houston; Rev. F. Doege of San Antonio,
Rev. P. Herpold of Seguin, Rev. A. Linge
of Temple, Rev. C. Linge of Kansas, Rev.
D. Schrimpf of Dallas, Rev. G. W. Cousey
of Sherman, Rev. S. Linge of Henrietta,
and Rev. A. W. Tampke of Bowman..
The sessions of these ministers will last
from tomorrow afternoon at the hour stat-
ed until Saturday afternoon. The first
two days will be taken up in the district
meeting and the missionary society meet-
ing, while the last three days will be tak-
en in the annual conference.
The program so far as it can be ar-
ranged at the present time is as follows:
Tuesday afternoon, 3 o’clock, district
meeting in charge of Presiding Elder
Bunse. This session will doubtless carry
over into Wednesday morning.
Wednesday afternoon, the Missionary
society meeting.
Thursday morning the regular annual
conference for the district of Texas will
be taken up.
Friday, conference continued.
Saturday, conference continued, closing
Saturday afternoon.
The detailed program for the days of the
conference proper cannot be given, as
that will have to be decided upon, after
Bishop Horn arrives in the city Thursday
morning. The presiding elder and most of
the ministers are expected to arrive to-
morrow morning. Bishop Horn will be the
guest of the local pastor, Rev. C. Ermel,
while in the city.
The district conference is necessarily
small at the present time, as there are
only ten German Evangelical churches in
the state, although there are a number
more preaching places that have ministers.
Preaching services will be held in the local
church every night, beginning Tuesday.
